Journal Article
Błażkiewicz, M., Wiszomirska, I., Kaczmarczyk, K., Naemi, R., & Wit, A. (2017). Inter-individual similarities and variations in muscle forces acting on the ankle joint during gait. Gait and Posture, 58, 166-170. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2017.07.119

Muscle forces acting over the ankle joint play an important role in the forward progression of the body during gait. Yet despite the importance of ankle muscle forces, direct in-vivo measurements are neither possible nor practical. This makes musculo...
